Story
Hi, I’m Rian 💛 I’m a 5-year-old boy, a Malamute–Husky mix, and I weigh about 23kg. I know… I look big and strong, maybe even a little cool. But if you get to know me, you’ll see—I’m actually just a big softie. I really, really love people. Even if we’ve just met, I might come right up to you like, “Hi… can we be friends?” I love being close to my person. Spending time together, making eye contact, sharing quiet moments… that’s what makes me feel safe and happy. Once I open my heart, I become very affectionate. I’ll want to stay near you, lean into you, and just be by your side as much as I can. I get along well with other dogs too! I have a gentle nature and enjoy playing, whether it’s with toys or with friends. I’m a bright, cheerful boy who just enjoys life and companionship. I was rescued from a place where my time was almost over… but I didn’t lose my trust in people. I still believe in love, and I’m still reaching out for it. I’m also a pretty quick learner! If you teach me with patience and consistency, I’ll do my best to understand and follow along. Because of my Malamute and Husky side, I do have lots of energy. I’ll need regular walks, exercise, and time to really let that energy out. A quick walk won’t always be enough—I’d love a family who enjoys being active with me. I can also have a little independent streak (maybe just a tiny bit stubborn sometimes… 😊), so I’ll need someone who can guide me with calm, steady leadership. Living in a home might be new for me, so I’ll need to learn things like house routines and potty habits from the beginning. But if you’re patient with me, I know I can become an amazing companion. I’m already ready to love someone with my whole heart. All I need now… is someone who will accept me, guide me, and stay with me for life. Will you be my person? 💛

Good with kids, Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet SHASTA, a beautiful Malamute mix with a bright spirit and an adventurous heart. She’s an active, outdoors‑loving girl who thrives on long walks, hikes, and any chance to explore the world with her people. If you’re someone who loves fresh air, movement, and a loyal companion by your side, she’ll fit right in. Shasta gets along wonderfully with other dogs and she’s been exposed to a wide variety of animals. She does well with cats, chickens, ducks, pigs, and even a goose. The only animals she struggles with are rabbits, so a rabbit‑free home is important. She’s crate trained, walks nicely on leash, and knows a great set of commands, including: Sit, Wait, Load up, Okay (her release word), Leave it, Cross (she waits for permission to cross the road), Paw, High Five and Get it. Her recall still needs work, so she should remain on leash during outdoor adventures for now. With consistency and patience, she’ll continue to grow. Shasta will do best in a home with older kids or no kids, simply because her energy and enthusiasm are better suited to a more mature household. She’s an ideal match for outdoorsy people who enjoy staying active and want a dog who can keep up. Most importantly, she’s looking for people with lots of love to give—because she has plenty to give back. Shasta is ready for a life full of adventure, companionship, and affection. If you’re looking for a loyal, energetic partner to share your days with, she might be the perfect fit.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.April 17, 2026, 6:43 pm

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Odyssey — The Big, Goofy Malamute With an Even Bigger Heart If you love a dog with personality, presence, and a whole lot of charm, Odyssey is ready to win you over. This big, smiley Malamute is the definition of a gentle giant—affectionate, goofy, and absolutely devoted to the people he loves. Odyssey is known for his escape‑artist theatrics and his playful “catch me if you can” routine, but his oversized ears always give him away. He may try to act sneaky, but he’s far too endearing to pull it off. Because he’s clever and curious, he’ll need a secure 6‑foot fenced yard to keep his adventures safe and contained. What Odyssey loves most is attention. Leaning into you for affection, rolling over for belly rubs, and staring at you with the most loving (and sometimes hilariously awkward) gaze—these are his specialties. Despite his size, he’s a total sweetheart who just wants to be close to his people. Watch him run and you’ll see those big ears bounce in every direction, perfectly matching his joyful, slightly clumsy energy. Whether he’s joining you for a long walk or romping around the yard, Odyssey brings fun and enthusiasm to everything he does. Odyssey is the perfect match for a family who: Has a secure 6‑foot fenced yard Enjoys an energetic, playful companion Appreciates a dog who is both goofy and deeply affectionate Wants a larger‑than‑life personality who will always keep them smiling Life with Odyssey means laughter, love, and a whole lot of Malamute charm. If you’re looking for a big sweetie who will fill your days with joy, Odyssey is ready to be your new best friend.    Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.April 17, 2026, 6:43 pm

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. This is TILLY, a cute female Alaskan Malamute who is eagerly looking for her furever home. She may be a mixed breed, but has the malamute mask, brown eyes and big paws. Tilly is the leader of their little pack. Loves to run, climb play, but can be short tempered. Easy to train and funny like her sister. Loves to give snuggles and kisses but quickly runs off to play. Loves to jump and play chase. Likes to be close to you when you sit. Very sweet. She is leash trained but only if you go where she wants to go. Knows to sit and wait for treats versus grabbing for them.  She is c rate trained and on her way to being potty trained. She has very few accidents anymore and will try to let you know when she needs to go out Tilly and her litter mates were recently found in Eastern Washington.  They were rescued and brought into foster homes where they are beginning their puppy training.  Unfortuantely, someone docked their tails but otherwise they are healthy, happy and full of energy. She will have all her vaccinations, is already altered and ready for a new home soon.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. YUKON has been making huge strides in his socialization journey. This boy has transformed from a shy, laid‑back loner into a playful, outgoing goofball—with just enough dignity in his posture to make him look almost regal. YUKON has officially shed his “Mr. Shy Guy” persona. Not only has he found his confidence… he’s also found his voice. And trust us—it’s a big one! His joyful barks echo his newfound boldness, and we couldn’t be prouder of how far he’s come. Watching YUKON blossom has been an absolute joy, and we’re so excited to see him continue stepping into the wonderful dog he was always meant to be. We recommend that Yukon be adopted with his buddy Kit. Yukon and Kit are two very different personalities who fit together perfectly. Their bond has grown stronger with every passing day, and it’s clear they bring out the best in each other.  Yukon and Kit balance each other beautifully. Yukon’s calm, steady presence helps ground Kit’s whirlwind energy. Kit’s playful spirit encourages Yukon to come out of his shell and enjoy life. They play together, learn together, and find comfort in each other’s company. Separating them would mean undoing the emotional progress they’ve made side by side. Together, they’re confident, joyful, and thriving. The adoption fee would be $750 for both of them.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.April 17, 2026, 6:43 pm

Story
Hi… I’m Daniel 🤍 I almost didn’t get the chance to meet you. There was a time when my story was about to end, but somehow, at the very last moment, I was given another chance. And ever since then, I’ve been waiting… hoping my real family would find me. Maybe that’s you. I have a calm and gentle heart. Even when I meet someone for the first time, I don’t feel scared—I walk up with quiet curiosity, hoping for a kind touch. I really love people. Being near you makes me feel safe and happy. I get along well with other dogs too. I’m not the type to bark a lot or get easily startled. Sometimes, after playing outside, I just lie down and fall asleep peacefully. I like those quiet, comfortable moments… especially if you’re nearby. If you look at me, you might notice my soft white fur and what people call the “Samoyed smile.” It looks like I’m always smiling—and maybe I am, especially when I’m with someone I love. I’ve been learning new things like “sit,” and I try really hard because I want to understand you better. I think I’m doing pretty well! My walks are nice and easy too—I like walking together, side by side. There are still a few things I’m working on. I’m practicing outdoor potty training, and when I’m in a completely new place, I might need a little time before I come to you on my own. But if you’re patient with me, I promise I’ll open my heart more and more. I already have a lot of love inside me. I just need a family to give it to. If you choose me, I won’t just be your dog— I’ll be your quiet companion, your soft place to rest, your reason to smile on ordinary days. I’ve waited long enough. Now I just want a home… and someone to call my family. Will you be my forever? 🤍

Story
Hi… I’m Duri 🤍 Before I met kind people, I spent a long time on my own… without care, without warmth. I just endured each day the best I could. But things have changed now. I’ve been given a chance to start over— and I’m waiting for a family to share that new beginning with. Maybe… that could be you. People say I look strong and handsome. My thick fur, my clear eyes… sometimes I remind them of a brown husky. But what I really want you to see isn’t just how I look— It’s who I am. I like people. I really do. I’ll come up to you first, gently, hoping to connect. I enjoy being close, sharing quiet moments, feeling like I belong. I also get along well with other dogs. Being around friends feels natural to me, and I’m comfortable sharing space and energy with them. Inside me, I carry something special— the calm loyalty of an Akita, and the intelligence and quick learning of a Jindo. That means when I bond with you… it won’t be shallow. It will be deep. Steady. Unbreakable. But I’m still learning. Living in a home is new to me. Things like potty training, daily routines, and how to behave indoors—these are things you’ll need to teach me, step by step. Because I’m a strong and active dog, I’ll also need guidance on walks and basic manners. I want to do well—I just need someone to show me how. In the beginning, I might seem a little unsure. A new place, a new life… it can feel overwhelming. But if you stay patient, consistent, and kind with me, I will find my balance. I’m not a difficult dog— but I am a dog who needs understanding. Someone who won’t just “have” me, but will truly live with me. Teach me. Connect with me. If you can do that… I promise you something rare. A bond built on trust. A loyalty that doesn’t fade. A companion who stands by you, no matter what. I’ve already come so far from where I started. Now I just need a place to finally belong. No more loneliness. Just warmth… and you. Will you be my forever family? 🤍

Story
🏠 Currently in a Toronto foster home Samuel is a 2-year 8-month-old male Samoyed-Jindo mix, weighing 18.7 kg. At just six months old, Samuel was placed on the euthanasia list at a city shelter along with his sibling, Yuel. Thankfully, they were both rescued, and he is now staying at our training center, slowly regaining his trust in people and desperately hoping to start a new life with his forever family. Samuel’s personality is very gentle and non-aggressive. However, due to his traumatic past, he tends to be wary of strangers and takes time to warm up to new people. When he first arrived at our training center, he was very shy, but after a few days, he gradually opened up and revealed his naturally sweet and affectionate personality. Because he does not easily approach unfamiliar people and will require ample time and patience to adjust, extra care should be taken during walks to prevent any escape attempts, and household entryways should be securely managed until he fully bonds with his new family. Like a typical Jindo mix, Samuel has an independent streak. However, he also strongly exhibits the Samoyed’s affectionate nature and responsiveness to human connection. Once he builds trust, he expresses deep affection. Samuel gets along well with other dogs and has formed a particularly strong bond with his sibling, Yuel. Since they have spent so much time together, he may experience separation anxiety if they are apart, and this should be considered when adopting. He currently goes outside for bathroom breaks three times a day and enjoys running freely with his canine friends in the exercise yard. However, during the adjustment period in a new home, occasional accidents may occur. Once he settles in, he should quickly adapt to an outdoor potty routine again. It is recommended to start taking him on walks only after he has bonded with his new family. Due to his Jindo mix heritage, he has a strong homing instinct. If he is suddenly taken far away or travels by plane, he may become confused and instinctively try to find his way back home. To prevent this, walks should only begin after he fully recognizes his adopter as family. Even then, a double leash or harness is essential for safety. Samuel still carries emotional scars from his traumatic past and may be shy and cautious at first. However, for those that are willing to endure that initial period and patiently wait for his trust, Samuel will become the most loyal and loving lifelong companion.
